Below is the "most helpful" Steam user review of Planet Coaster.

Most of the praise is unanimous in saying Planet Coaster feels like the spiritual successor to the RollerCoaster Tycoon series, which has had a tough time of it for a number of years now. Overall, user reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with an impressive 95 per cent of of the 1310 reviews marked as positive. Now onto Planet Coaster, which came out on 17th November. Perhaps the reception shouldn't come as any surprise: Atari's clearly struggled with RCTW, switching developers a number of times as it's battled negative feedback to alphas, betas and a Steam Early Access build. Below is the "most helpful" user review of RCTW, the one that appears at the top by default when you visit its Steam page. I struggled to find anything positive about the game, with most pointing to Planet Coaster instead. That means just 32 per cent of the 1810 reviews are positive.ĭigging into the user reviews, there are complaints about the game's graphics, performance and feature set. Overall, user reviews for RCTW are mostly negative. Well, in short, it's been something of a disaster. Let's start with RollerCoaster Tycoon World, which came out on 16th November. Reviews for both games are in the works at Eurogamer, but I thought it would be interesting to see how the two rivals were doing in terms of Steam user reception. This week, Atari's RollerCoaster Tycoon World came out on Steam - a day before Frontier's Planet Coaster launched, also on Valve's digital platform. Converting this to real-life comes to around 16,497 days or over 45 years.It's early days in the great coaster sim war, but already it looks like we have a clear winner. So, that means ‘45 Years in Hell’ takes 107,911,680 RCT days to complete one ride. This means it takes around 3,597,056 RCT days to finish eight laps. So the ‘Very Long Junior Coaster’ takes 449,632 RCT2 days to complete one lap. So to calculate, since a year in RCT2 takes 245 days. So it has to take 8-laps 32 times to make ‘45 Years in Hell’ complete one entire ride. The next car of ‘45 Years in Hell’ will then leave the station again when ‘Very Long Junior Coaster’ comes back after doing 8 laps. As soon as the car reaches the station after 8 laps and leaves the station again for a new 8-lap ride, it also releases one car from ‘45 Years in Hell.’ because of the synchronised station. And since the ‘Very Long Junior Coaster’ takes 1835 in-game years and 57 days for 1 lap because of the extremely low speed, it will have to take 7 more laps to complete one entire ride. This means that the cars of both rides will leave the stations together for every ride (not lap). The stations of both the roller coaster rides are synchronised. He added that ‘45 Years in Hell’ ride has 32 block sections with 31 cars on it. However, a glitch makes a roller coaster take one lap extra if the car comes back the entire way to the station, entering from the same side where it started. As explained, the ‘Very Long Junior Coaster’ takes 1835 in-game years and 57 days to complete one lap. The map can support up to 131,000 elements at once. There was still some extra space remaining but Vos said that he used the entire landscape data of the map. While the smaller one is spanned across the entire field, the longer one takes a comparatively small space. Vos has broken his record and has come up with ‘45 Years in Hell.’ In the YouTube video by Vos, we see that there are two roller coaster rides in a park. The ride circled the park for around 600 times, taking same in-game time as 12 years in real life. This is nothing new for the fan named Marcel Vos as he has previously created a roller coaster named ‘Wild Mouse’ with a near-endless loop. One of those fans seems to have gone bit creative as he has made a ride in the game that will take more than 45 years to end. Since it has been there since long, it’s natural that the title’s newer version too, Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2), has garnered a lot of fans over the years.

Earlier we used to play it on large Windows computers running Pentium processors and now the same video game has been optimised for touch screens and is available on PCs, Android and iOS smartphones. Atari’s Roller Coaster Tycoon is one of the video titles that has been there since over a decade.
